Features
Five prominent features in design and in service
are inherent with Chain Block;
1. Safety in operation with minimum maintenance
2. High efciency and Light hand pull
3. Light weight and easy handing
4.Fine appearance with compact size
5. Durability in service
6. Overload protection equipped in W5 Series
Application
The W4 Series Chain Block is a portable lifting device easily operated by
hand chain it is suitable for use in factories, mines, farms, construction
sites, wharves, docks and warehouses for installation of equipment, as well
as for loading and unloading goods it is specially advantageous for lifting
work in open air grounds and places where no power supply is available.
The chain block can be attached to a trolley of any type as a travelling chain
block. It is suitable to monorail overhead conveying system, travelling
crane and jib crane.
WARNING
New operator must be trained prior to use!
Construction
The W4 & W5 Series Chain Block is designed with a transmission
mechanism of symmetrically managed two-step spur gears it comprises
the following principal parts hand chain, hand wheel, brake, driving gear
shaft, disc gear, pinion shaft, spline gear, chain sprocket and load chain.
On pulling the hand chain the hand wheel rotates In clockwise direction,
presses the friction plates and ratchet disc tightly against the brake seat
and causes these parts to rotate in unison.
The driving gear shaft turns the disc gear, pinion shaft and spline gear
to rotate, hence the load chain sprocket which is mounted on the spline
gear actuates the load chain to lift the load smoothly and firmly.
The brake used is a ratchet disc with a set of single-acting friction plates
it holds up itself on load and the pawls meshed with the ratchet disc by
force of the spring thus ensuring the brake to work safely.

How to use W4/W5 Chain Block
1. Judge the weight of the load to be lifted and make sure that the
weight Is not over the rated capacity of the chain block Never overload
the block on any occasion.
2. Careful Inspection should be made to the parts, such as hooks, load
chain, braking device, etc. and the lubrication of the Block. The chain
block can only be put Into operation when It is found to be in good
condition.
3. Before lifting, inspect the hooks to see whether they are securely
attached Obliquity of the hooks and load suspension at hook tip are
not permissible. For perfect performance of the block, the load chain
should be kept vertically straight without any twist so as to prevent it
from tangling.
4. During operation, the operator should stand in the plane of the hand
wheel. To lift the load , pull the hand chain to rotate the hand wheel
in clockwise direction ,When pulling the hand chain in the reverse
direction the hand wheel will be separated from brake seat, the ratchet
disc checked by pawl will be released, and the load will be lowered
down smoothly. Do not pull the hand chain In a position oblique to
the plane of the hand wheel to prevent tangling of the hand chain
and turning of the block.
5. For the sake of safety passing or working under a lifting load is strictly
forbidden.
6. While lifting or lowering a load the hand chain should be pulled
steadily so as to prevent It from jerking or tangling.
7. Stop operation immediately in case the hand chain cannot be pulled
any further, Don’t ask more hands for pulling, Proceed Inspection as
follows:
• If there is anything entangled with the load.
• Whether there is any trouble with the parts of the block.
• Whether the load weight Is over the rated capacity of the block.

DO NOT lift a load
exceeding the capacity of
the chain block.
DO NOT walk or stand
under a suspended load.
DO NOT use a chain block
to drag a load along the
ground.
DO NOT try to pull hand
chain if the block jams.
DO NOT try to hoist further
than the hook limit to the
block or lower a load to the
limit of the chain stop.
DO NOT hoist a load while
the chain is kinked, twisted
or damaged.

Maintenance
1. Clean off the dirt on the chain block after use and store it in a dry place
to keep it from getting rusty and corrosive.
2. Clean the parts with kerosene and smear the gears and bearings with
grease once a year by a competent person.
3. Align the o marks of the two gears While assembling as shown In
Section View.
4. The rollers of the chain sprocket bearing may be stuck with grease to
the journal of the chain sprocket before tting them Into the outer
race of the bearing on the side plate.
5. While assembling the brake mechanism care should be taken to
mesh the slanting teeth of the ratchet disc and the pawl. Make sure
that the pawl is controlled by the spring sensitively and reliably. Then
turn the hand wheel clockwise after screwing it onto the driving shaft
and it must press the disc and the plates on the brake seat turning it
counter clockwise there should be clearances between the disc and
the plates.
6. Transition t is applied to the stay and the right side plate. Don’t
dismantle them or they will get loose.
7. Never allow any unqualied person to disassemble the block. Blocks
shall be serviced and tested by a qualied person.
8. After cleaning and repairing the block should be subjected to no-load
test and heavy load test. A chain block can be put into operation after
it has been tested and found in good condition.
9. Keep clean the friction surfaces of the brake while lubricating or
operating the block. Brake mechanism should be inspected regularly
